Abstract:Fuel additives play a significant role in enhancing the thermal stability of fuel combustion. The effect of additives on the combustion of hydrocarbon fuels and the combustion performances of isooctane with three different isomer additives, (n‐butanol (1‐BuOH), diethyl ether (DEE), and 2‐butanol(2‐BuOH)), and additive‐free isooctane were explored by ReaxFF simulation in this work. The simulation system was heated to 3000 K at a heating rate of 10 K/ps and kept stable at 3000 K. A variety of combustion products… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
